I think the FG situation will work itself out...besides, I think Favre plans on the Packers getting a lot more TD's than FG's this year. Anybody can knock in those PAT's, right? Oh, wait...Longwell missed one against TB last year and we lost by one. :sad:

It means that the FG kicking will progress through competition and bringing in someone who will either take the job or push Cundiff into being better. The guy missed 2 FG's in the scrimmage...so what? It didn't cost us anything but make people give up on him already.

How was Longwell's year last year? Oh, yeah..."if the hold would have been tilted just so and the field conditions and"....pfffffft.

To be honest, I'm far more worried about our WR's catching the damn ball and not dropping it like it's a hot potato at this point.

i wouldn't use a scrimmage to judge Cundiff, i can look at his career and tell you he's going to cost us games...just like he botched a number of games for Dallas last year (granted, he wasn't as healthy as he should've been).

Longwell had an uncharacteristic year, thats the difference between the two.

Cundiff is about as good as it gets when you look at the market right now. competition with other mediocre kickers isn't going to improve our kicking game.

im probably equally worried about the passing game as i am about the kicking game.

I would think that Todd Peterson should get a look...or Edinger. They're both probably better but it's early still. I just can't wait for everybody to start on the 40 yard line every time Longwell kicks off for the Vikes...their defense isn't all that and a bag of chips so people will be able to put up points against the Vikes with that kind of field position.
